    G'day all :D

    Today I have/will:

    Have a NSD.
    Cook all meals from store cupboard.
    Do a wash at 30 degrees and dry over airers.
    Exercised in front of the TV instead of going to the gym.
    Made my son take the remains of his brithday cake to his dads so I didn't eat it...not strictly money saving but fabulous for my diet.
    Checked online banking.
    Listed an item on Ebay.
    Hoovered the whole house including the stairs, it took half an hour and must have burnt some calories - ye ha!
    Applied to join a hairdressing course that starts in September - so looking forward to this...need a new career. :D Oh aye...and it's free except for the kit you need to buy.
    Cleaned the bathroom using stardrops and elbow grease...wow what a task!
    Will be perusing through clothing cupboards tomorrow to list a few unwanted items on Ebay.

    That's it so far...have a fab evening y'all. X x
  • Hi peeps

    Today I deposited a cheque into my bank account, and did two loads of batch cooking to go into the freezer using up some sad looking veges from the fridge and a reduced price beef joint in the freezer, so well chuffed with that. So won't be spending any unecessary money on food when I go back to work next week, as it's cooked and ready.

    Cheers
    Casper
